Sittin' here, thousand miles from nowhere In this one room country little shack ♪ Sittin' here, thousand miles from nowhere In this one room country little shack ♪ My only worldly possession is a ragged ol' 'leven foot cotton sack I wake up every night 'bout midnight People, I just can't sleep no more I wake up every night 'bout midnight People, I just can't sleep no more Only crickets and frogs to keep me company And the wind howlin' 'round my door ♪ I'm gonna leave here early in the mornin'
I'm 'bout to go out of my mind ♪ I'm gonna leave here early in the mornin' I'm 'bout to go out of my mind I'm gonna find me some kind of a companion ♪ Even if she's dumb, deaf, cripple and blind
